Install and run
Setup complexity: low.
clawhub skill install kn76hnh4zc47dyn8dmv1t5ev5180f5wv:workflowy- Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.
- Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

# workflowy
Use the unofficial `workflowy` CLI [mholzen/workflowy](https://github.com/mholzen/workflowy) for managing a Workflowy outline. Requires API key setup.
## Setup (once)
Get your API key at https://workflowy.com/api-key/, and save it to `~/.workflowy/api.key`:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.workflowy
echo "your-api-key-here" > ~/.workflowy/api.key
```
## Common commands
### Reading
```bash
# Get root nodes (depth 2 by default)
workflowy get
# Get specific node by UUID or short ID
workflowy get <item-id>
workflowy get https://workflowy.com/#/59fc7acbc68c
# Show a node's children as a flat list
workflowy list <item-id>
# Search (full text, case-insensitive)
workflowy search -i "meeting notes"
# Search with extended regex
workflowy search -E "<time.*>"
# Search within a subtree
workflowy search "bug" --item-id <parent-id>
```
### Writing
```bash
# Add a new node to the Inbox
workflowy create "Buy groceries" --parent-id=inbox
# Add a node to a specific parent
workflowy create "Task" --parent-id=<uuid>
# Update a node
workflowy update <item-id> --name "New name"
# Complete/uncomplete
workflowy complete <item-id>
workflowy uncomplete <item-id>
# Move a node
workflowy move <item-id> <new-parent-id>
# Delete a node (includes its children!)
workflowy delete <item-id>
```
### Bulk operations
```bash
# Search and replace (dry run first!)
workflowy replace --dry-run "foo" "bar"
workflowy replace --interactive "foo" "bar"
# Regex find/replace using capture groups
workflowy replace "TASK-([0-9]+)" 'ISSUE-$1'
# Transform: split by newlines into children
workflowy transform <item-id> split -s "\n"
# Transform: trim whitespace
workflowy transform <item-id> trim
```
### Statistics
```bash
# Where is most content?
workflowy report count --threshold 0.01
# Nodes with most children
workflowy report children --top-n 20
# Stale content (oldest modified)
workflowy report modified --top-n 50
# Most mirrored nodes (requires backup)
workflowy report mirrors --top-n 20
```
